Visual Web Developer Express 2005 question

[barry]

I had Visual Web Developer Express 2005 and Visual Studio 2005 installed on
my computer.
Realizing that I did not need Visual Web Developer Express 2005 since I had
VS 2005 I removed it.
My question could this be a possible reason that the ASP.NET configuration
tool is not
working in VS 2005 when I am doing web development? What happens is upon
execution
it just brings me back into the same VS design page from where I executed.

thanks

Hi Barry,

You might want to do a reinstall of VS 2005 to make sure all the bits are
arranged. It's possible that the VWDE uninstall was too aggressive.

I did the reinstall you suggested but with same results.
Is there anyway I could get a look at a web.config file after a new user was
setup using the ASP.NET configuration tool?

thanks

I was able to bring up the configuration tool but outside of VS 2005 by
using the following url

http://localhost:3932/asp.netwebadm...tpub\wwwroot\website\&applicationURL=/website

I was able to eye ball the application when it flew by me to get the port
number of the localhost.

Since it is recognizing the tool on my machine but not from within vs 2005
it must be some kind of configuration that I am missing right?

I do not have express 2005 I am using sql server 2005. Could it be I need to
change this setting in the machine config file.

Any ideas would be helpful.

thanks
